Deliver Me, O LORD! A Psalm of David, when he fled from his son Absalom. 1O LORD, how my foes have increased! 2Many say of me, “God will not deliver him.” Selaha 3But You, O LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the One who lifts my head. 4To the LORD I cry aloud, and He answers me from His holy mountain. 5I lie down and sleep; I wake again, for the LORD sustains me. 6I will not fear the myriads 7Arise, O LORD! Save me, O my God! Strike all my enemies on the jaw; break the teeth of the wicked. 8Salvation belongs to the LORD; may Your blessing be on Your people. Selah Footnotes: 2 a Selah or Interlude is probably a musical or literary term; here and throughout the Psalms.
